Live in the USA, am totally blind, and have been using NVDA for many years now. I saved a ton of money using their free open source software. Thanks mates!!!

far out these two, their wives and the samoan blind association are amazing I can't even imagine how much work they put into everything they've achieved

[@indianolaguitarman]

Thanks so much to the two of them for creating and maintaining NVDA. And thanks for sharing their story so well. I’ve done assistive technology for 26 years and was always bothered by the high cost of commercial screen readers. NVDA is a game changer. I highly recommend and I use it to test the accessibility of software and web sites in my work.

Someone will pinch their idea and make millions. Not everybody is nice

Im not sure how it works but I hope they have some sort of patent on it, or something similar.

Uh duh... Look at Vispero... In Clearwater, Florida? The same very place where my biologic dad lived till his untimely death on January 21st of 2022? That company is still SlaveScienceFiction to me!
